Seven points to note for preventing miscarriage in doe deer

Miscarriage prevention for deer should begin at mating and end at fawning. To ensure rapid fetal development in deer, the following tasks should be done well for miscarriage prevention.

1. Prevent inbreeding. Inbreeding increases the chances of embryo death and the birth of deformed deer. It also easily causes low viability in fawns, leading to reduced productivity.

2. Strengthen the taming of deer, enhance their docility, and prevent mechanical miscarriage.

3. Improve the living environment of doe deer. Promptly clear snow and ice from the deer shed. Prevent deer from slipping and suffering miscarriage.

4. Strengthen the exercise of deer. Drive the doe deer to move for 1 hour to 2 hours at fixed times every day, either inside the shed or in the enclosure. Exercise also improves the degree of taming in doe deer.

5. Meet the nutritional needs of pregnant doe deer. Roughage should be of good quality and sufficient quantity, and as diverse as possible, especially without shortage of calcium and phosphorus. At the same time, selenium and vitamin E should be supplemented appropriately.

6. Pay attention to feed hygiene and feeding methods. Do not feed moldy, spoiled or frozen feed. Feeding should be done at fixed times, in fixed amounts and with fixed quality.

7. Do a good job in hygiene and epidemic prevention to prevent disease outbreaks. Brucellosis can cause large-scale miscarriage in pregnant doe deer. Therefore, do not purchase feed in epidemic areas. When introducing breeding stock, strict quarantine must be carried out, and normally, sheep brucellosis vaccine should be administered regularly.
